Coly Li d53189f8e2 bcache: check c->gc_thread by IS_ERR_OR_NULL in cache_set_flush()
[ Upstream commit b387e9b58679c60f5b1e4313939bd4878204fc37 ]

When system memory is in heavy pressure, bch_gc_thread_start() from
run_cache_set() may fail due to out of memory. In such condition,
c->gc_thread is assigned to -ENOMEM, not NULL pointer. Then in following
failure code path bch_cache_set_error(), when cache_set_flush() gets
called, the code piece to stop c->gc_thread is broken,
         if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(c->gc_thread))
                 kthread_stop(c->gc_thread);

And KASAN catches such NULL pointer deference problem, with the warning
information:

Therefore, it is not enough to only check whether c->gc_thread is NULL,
we should use IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to check both NULL pointer and error
value.

This patch changes the above buggy code piece in this way,
         if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(c->gc_thread))
                 kthread_stop(c->gc_thread);

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
